HANDLE GASOLINE (PETROL) WITH CARE. IT IS HIGHLY FLAMMABLE.
Refuel before starting work.
Always use fresh gasoline (petrol). Stale gasoline (petrol) can cause leakage.
Always pull starter cord slowly until resistance is felt. Then pull cord rapidly to avoid kick-
back and prevent arm or hand injury.
Always operate engine with spark arrestor installed and operating properly. The use of spark
arrestor mufflers is required by law in the state of California (Section 4442 of the California
Public Resources Code), as well as in other states or municipalities. Federal laws apply on feder-
al lands.
Replace gasoline (petrol) cap securely. If fuel is spilled move blower and fuel container from area
and do not create a source of ignition.
Avoid spilling fuel or oil. Always wipe unit dry before using. Move at least 10 feet away from
the fueling (fuelling) point before starting engine.
Always store gasoline (petrol) in an approved container. Fill tank outdoors with extreme care.

A. Install lower handles (30) on top of deck (32, 33). Secure with four cap screws 5/16-18 x 1 3/4
(34), four 5/16 flat silver washers (31), and four 5/16-18 nylon nuts (2), finger tight.
B. Install upper handle (17) with four cap screws 5/16-18 x 1 3/4 (34), eight 5/16 washers (31),
and four 5/16-18 nylon nuts (2), finger tight. Tighten lower handle nuts and bolts.
Tighten upper handle nuts and bolts until the lower handle tubing pinches the upper
handle. It will be normal for the lower handle tubing to crush slightly.
C. Attach throttle cable to upper handle with 1/4-20 x 1 1/2" cap screw (19) and 1/4-20 lock
nut (22) through hole on upper handle (17). For Briggs and Stratton INTEK series engines,
the throttle control will mount on the right hand side. For Honda engines, it will mount
on the left. Insert the 10-32 x 3/4" self-tapping screw through the hole of the throttle
control and into the pilot hole in the handle and tighten. (NOTE: Over tightening the
screw on the left hand mounted controls could cause damage to the control.) Once the
10-32 screw is tightened, go back to the 1/4-20 screw and tighten it enough to get a smooth
action in the control. If the throttle does not maintain it’s setting once you start the
engine, tighten this screw some more. Connect throttle clip (15) to upper handle.
D. Tilt blower back on handle and install front wheel bracket (51) over the three studs on
lower front of blower housing. Secure with three 5/16-18 flange nuts (5).
E. Insert pneumatic wheel sleeve (53) in front pneumatic wheel (52). Install pneumatic wheel
spacers (54) over the axle sleeve on both sides of wheel and install in front wheel bracket
(51). Insert 3/8-16 x 5 1/4 axle bolt (50) through wheel bracket and axle sleeve. Secure with
3/8-16 axle nut (49).
